My day job, either meeting with customers or meetings at our corporate office in Pasadena. I love the weather, hate everything else.

This stuff reeks. I like the way it works, don't care for the smell.....But I bought a gallon, so I'll use it up.

I am in Pasadena all the time. Yes, it has gotten crowded, I stay away from the main streets where businesses and such are. I am running around the back residential streets, off the fwy.

We stay at the Westin when I am in Pasadena, nice walkable area near the courthouse. I don't mind Pasadena. If I had to deal with the freeway traffic I would kill somebody within a week.

Motorcycles are best solution for dealing with traffic in SoCal.

Frozen washer fluid - guilty as charged. Road trip to SLC years ago and I didn't have working washers until we hit CA on the return drive. With all the salt and road dirt being thrown up it royally sucked.

Last weekend it was 20F here and there were still people out riding Harleys--without helmets or caps.

"Winter Formula" WW means a different thing in Texas than it does here. Filled up South of Dallas after a sales meeting and headed North. Froze solid. Had to get it indoors at a local garage for a couple hours to make it work again. Blue dye water in a gallon jug.
